Description

I think the documentation, there is an inconsistency:

You mention in these lines that the default value is true if topology is set to ha, but in these lines, where the possible values of topology are outlined, there is only a choice of standalone, tier, and manual mentioned. Was ha forgotten there, or is that a typo in the Redis section?

Research direction

Read docs-chef-io/content/server/v14/config_rb_server_optional_settings.md at the topology values section around lines 102-105 and the Redis setting around lines 1763-1767. Check the linked Aha feature for the intended behavior; the documentation is done when the topology options and Redis default statement consistently describe the supported setting.
